Quite Honestly
Low stock: 5 left
Life couldn�t be better for Lucinda Purefoy. Granted it�s a little embarrassing, her father being the Bishop of Aldershot, but she�s got a steady boyfriend, a degree in social sciences and the offer of a job in advertising. With all this, she felt she should �pay back her debt to society� and �do a little good in the world�.
That�s why she joined SCRAP (short for �Social Carers, Reformers and Praeceptors�), an organization which trains girls like Lucy to become the �guide, philosopher and friend� to ex-convicts coming out of prison, to find them a job, a home and to encourage them to kick the habit of stealing things.
And so Lucy finds herself standing outside the gates of Wormwood Scrubs, on a windy March morning, waiting to greet her first SCRAP �client�, a career-burglar called Terry Keegan. What happens next confounds expectations and produces a story full of surprises.
With a cast of characters that rivals anything in his famous Rumpole stories and a compulsive plot, Quite Honestly is a wonderfully comic novel, packed with John Mortimer�s entertaining reflections on crime.
